The owner/chef of the Osteria would take the utmost pride in stocking these praised elements as the basis for mouthwatering meals, a delicious dance-for-all of the five senses.

    Great time and good food as usual. Disappointing in that it was my 37th anniversary and I had mentioned it in my reservation. Nothing from the restaurant. Maybe I expected too much.

    This was probably the best experience I’ve had at Old Ebbitt Grill. We got seated in the bar area, which was warm and comforting on a cold, snowy night. Our waiter was awesome…incredible competent with just the right amount of sass. The food was amazing…everything we ate was delicious. And the company was wonderful. I can’t wait for others to come into town to take them here.

    Our 2nd visit - brought friends - another wonderful dining experience! Every dish was wonderful - ample portions. Good wine list. The strip mall location a bit of a distraction & the indoor space can be noisy but the entire staff offer great service & the chef provides a meal that will make up for it - definitely recommend & will return!
